When I was growing up, one of my favorite books was The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster and Jules Feiffer. I loved the exploration of the dual meanings of words — jumping to the Island of Conclusions, for example — as well as the idea that there is so much to do and to explore in the world that one need never be bored. Sadly, though, there was only the one book; Harry Potter got 7 volumes but Milo only one. While that hasn’t exactly changed, there is good news for Tollbooth fans.
